And the data reflects that as many people as we have been able to deport, that there are millions more that are voluntarily leaving because they're recognizing that the situations back home are not necessarily better or getting better relative to what they have here.
The challenge is...
I think Democrats are playing the long game here, and this is what we told you.
Once you let the $20 million in, it becomes almost impossible to get the $20 million out.
And it would take sustained multi-numbers of presidential Republicans that are committed to this for years and years to come.
And I think they know it's not going to happen.
The best tweet I've seen on this is, have you heard anybody complaining that their kids have lost childcare since the money was frozen for Minneapolis childcare?
I mean, all of you out there that are parents and have your kids in daycare in any way, and I bet that's a huge percentage of people that listen to us on a regular basis.
If your childcare was interrupted, it would be a major issue.
Isn't it really interesting that none of these Somali parents have been up in arms over the fact that their kids, they're not able to get their kids into child care and these subsidies are not working for them?
It shows you how much fraud was going on.
These people were never enrolled in schools.
They were all getting kickbacks.
They created one of the largest frauds related to childcare that we've ever seen.
And when it's actually stopped, there is zero pushback from people saying, wait a minute, my kids were legitimately enrolled.
I've got jobs.
I need help with the kids in the childcare.
Now we can get into what the role of the federal government or state government should be when it comes to childcare in general.
That is, I think, a really significant situation there, Buck, because people don't get to count if you're a mom or you're a dad or you're a grandma or you're a grandpa and you're providing childcare for your family, you don't get to huge, massive discounts in earnings, right?
You don't get to count that as a $50,000 a year job.
